細野晴臣を中心とした、はっぴいえんどやティン・パン・アレー周辺の70年代J-POPサウンドを現代にアップデートした、平均年齢23歳『never young beach』結成から僅か半年となる東京の若者5人組。
昭和な純喫茶から漂う珈琲のにおい、春の訪れから夏休みまでのワクワク、真夏の蒸せ返るような暑さ、残暑から秋に移り変わる哀愁など、様々な景色、におい、感情、日常が混じり合った独特な空気感、そしてユーモア溢れる歌詞がごく自然と流れていく全9曲。
トリプルギターのアンサンブルが最高に気持ち良く、サイケデリックでエキゾチック、かつ極上のポップサウンドは彼等にしか成せないオリジナリティに溢れた傑作。
またバンド主宰の安部がバンド編成になる前に宅録で制作した自主制作盤(名盤)から3曲(M-4,5,9)を再びミックスし直し収録している。真夏の気怠さ全開の名曲『夏がそうさせた』は必聴!
エンジニアには、Yogee New Wavesをはじめ、ペトロールズ、踊ってばかりの国、クリープハイプなどを手掛けるhmcの池田洋を迎え制作。リリース後は全国各地でのリリースツアーも開催予定!
Often regarded as the resurgence of Haruomi Hosono's legendary Japanese folk rock group Happy End, never young beach has been grabbing much attention in the Japanese music scene with its unique pop melody and down-to-earth lyrics, and combining its native Japanese sounds mixed with influences from American indie music. Formed in the spring of 2014 in Tokyo, debut album "YASHINOKI HOUSE" was released in May 2015, followed by 2nd album "fam fam", released in June 2016. Both albums were nominated for the "CD Shop Awards". The group performed in various large festivals including "FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL", "RISING SUN ROCK FES", "ROCK IN JAPAN", and "GREENROOM FES", and their major debut album "A GOOD TIME" was released in July 2017 from Victor Entertainment. The record release tour were all sold out, and the group had invited Devendra Banhart from Los Angeles, an artist whom they cite as one of their biggest influences, as a special guest for their added show in Tokyo at Studio Coast. The band had also previously supported the Japanese tours for The Growlers, Mild High Club, and Tommy Guerrero. An interview with the band's singer Yuma and Haruomi Hosono were recently published in conjunction with Hosono's new record release.
